Does this thing also convert python libraries for use on the web? Can it compile say keras or pytorch to javascript? I guess that would neat to have on the browser client side.

I don't know much about Pynecone, but that is indeed what pyodide does:

Again, not super familiar, so I don't know the level of effort required to support these libraries. Maybe adding pytorch would be infeasible, maybe they just need enough people to express interest.
